Answer:
Marine mining is a process that can be done by dredging the seabed and is used for the extraction of mineral resources from the seabed, which are non-renewable, with a negative impact on marine ecosystems.
Explanation:
The illustration shows a process of marine mining by dredging, where the resource extracted is of a mineral nature, like copper, zinc, silver and gold. Gravel used for construction can also be extracted from the sea. Mineral resources extracted from the sea are not renewable.
The process of marine mining can be harmful to the ecosystems there, so it must be a process that requires control and management from the ecological point of view.
Two possible consequences of not regulating marine mining are:
- <u><em>Destruction of the habitat of life forms present on the sea floor</em></u><em>, which endangers many species and even forces migration to more stable areas, with consequences on the food chains.
</em>
- <em><u>Extinction of marine species that inhabit the seabed</u></em><em>. The flora and fauna of the sea floor usually have slow reproductive cycles and, in the case of fish, spawning takes place on the bottom of the sea. Mining endangers the reproductive cycles of the species, leading to induced extinction.</em>
Responsible and controlled mining activity can be useful for humans, while avoiding negative consequences on the ecosystems that exist at the seabed.
This question is incomplete because the images a section 2 are not given. I searched for the complete question but could not find it. However, based on my knowledge and the characteristics of the tundra this is the answer.
The correct answer is C. The climate is harsh, which limits the number of species that can live there.
Explanation
The tundra is the name of an ecosystem that occupies a fifth of the earth's surface, mainly in the northern hemisphere, this is characterized by having a frozen subsoil that limits the emergence and growth of natural vegetation and trees. This ecosystem is the coldest on the planet due to its location near the poles, its landscape is characterized by a layer of snow that covers most of the ground. In addition, the climatic conditions are extreme, which limits the number of plant and animal species that can live there. According to the above, the correct answer is C. The climate is harsh, which limits the number of species that can live there.
Since it has no nucleus it's most likely a<u><em> prokaryote</em></u>
A marine biologist is examining the effects of oil pollution on a population of birds known as seagulls (Larus canus). She is particularly concerned that oil pollution may reduce the number of eggs raised in a seagull nest. During one breeding season, she counted the number of eggs present in a sampling of six seagull nests near each of the 14 refineries throughout the state. She discovered that seagulls laid and raised an average of four eggs per season. To confirm her hypothesis, the researcher must now examine seagull nests that have not been exposed to oil pollution. The researcher believes she is correct, and so expects to find D) 4-6 eggs per nest.
Not really sure but I think is that rodents mate randomly but wait for someone else to answer cause I’m not 100% sure
